[TowerTalk] LMR-400 vs. CommScope vs. Belden

What I'm really looking for are y'all's experience with these cables, with
respect to ease of use, bending radius, connectors, water ingress, etc. I
have an offer to get 800 ft of LMR-400 equiv. CommScope for $300. However, I
am planning to put up a crankup and it might be too stiff. On the other
hand, I can use it for future antenna projects elsewhere on the property.
So, what does the collective intelligence of the group say??

Study their data sheets. Theyre all on the internet!
